I've had good results using the Selmer Silver/Nickel polishing cloth. Shine up the key with the Selmer cloth, then wipe the key off thoroughly with another clean cloth.

Wiping the keywork down with a clean cloth after playing seems to keep tarnish at bay for me.

As noted above, some clarinets tarnish more quickly than others. In my studio, the Ridenour, Boosey & Hawkes, and Bundy clarinets don't tarnish and look great after being merely wiped with a clean rag. But, the Vitos and Normandys suffer from awful tarnishing.
